Maileys's POV #4

I wake up the next morning to banging at my door.

"We're here!" Bear shouts on the other end. I sit up and look out the huge window to see all the Capitol citizens looking at me. They all smile and wave towards me. The sight startles me and I fall of my bed. I see all their faces laugh. Good thing I can make them laugh. The train is moving still so that means we haven't yet arrived at the station. I quickly crawl to the door and answer it.

"Mailey-" Bear stops his sentence and looks down at me with a smile. He extends his hand and I take it. "Get dressed, lets go."

I look down at my clothes. "I guess I am dressed." I smile and we run down the car halls and are met in the dinning cart by a brightly dressed Sundy. Again she is wearing flats but this time she has a yellow jumpsuit that reminds me of the pedals of the flower that Bear gave me the day of the reaping. As soon as he gave it to me I put it on the porch so that I could come home to it. So much for that. Beside Sundy is Marcus standing with his arms across his chest and a stare that could bore into rock.

"Lets get ready to meet everyone. Shall we?" Sundy offers a big smile my way and takes my hand in hers. I give her a smile back to show her that everything is fine.

"Lets get some sponsors." I shake her hand in mine and Bear grabs on to her other hand.

"Thats the spirit you two." She gives both of us a glance then walks us to the train doors. The doors open and sunshine through my eyes like it did when we were exiting the Justice building back in district 2. Since all of us couldn't fit through the doorway I let Sundy and Marcus step out first and everyone was routing for them in the crowd. I could hear some girls yell Marcus's name. Then it goes quiet after a minute. I hear in the distance both mine and Bear's name being Chanted. I look at him and he looks at me. He shrugs his shoulders and walks past me and steps out of the door waving his hands at people. I see all the girls in the crowds heart melt as they look at the boy with brown hair and blue eyes. I decide to break his show and walk out of the door. I don't look the greatest but hell I shouldn't care. They can like me or not. I'll survive without them. I'll survive without the careers. I break my thought and look into the crowd. My name is being chanted and I can't help but smile. A few flowers are thrown at my feet and I decide to grab a couple.

I look at a handful of flowers and don't recognize any of them. There are many different colours from purple to orange. I had no clue any of those colours existed on a flower. All I saw was the yellow flowers in my district. I look over at Bear, Sundy, and Marcus that are leaving to enter a building. A huge building for that. I begin to follow behind them and catch a look at the crowd of people that are looking in awe at me. I think about how they wont be looking in awe at me soon they will be looking with eyes of blood lust when they see the blood shed in the games. I shake the thoughts away and walk beside Bear. He looks at me with a huge smile.

"That was fun." He looks at Sundy and Marcus in front of us. "I could get use to this." I frown at him. He's not the same. Sundy turns towards us but keeps walking forward. I look past her and see two peacekeepers holding two glass doors open to the building. We walk into the lobby of this unknown building and Sundy starts talking.

"Beauties." She twirls around at us and raises her arms around us. "This is where you will be staying for the next week." She looks at the eleveator. "Well on the second floor. Each district number has their own floor." I look over at Marcus who is pressing the elevator button.

"Lets go." He waves us into the elevator and we all stand comfortably beside each other. He presses the number two pad then steps back. I look at all the numbers and see 13. I know that floor isn't in use anymore. The door dings open and I walk into the threshold and see a place that is beyond my wildest dreams. I walk around and Sundy points down the hall.

"Those are the bedrooms." She sits down at the table. "Both of you get clean so you can meet your makeup artists for the Chariots tonight." I walk down the hallway with Bear and turn to him.

"Since we can't talk right now I want to talk to you later tonight." He nods and gives me a hug before he opens a door and enters it.

I open my door and yet again am surprised about how this room is. My own my mind couldn't imagine this. I look in the center of the room and gasp at how big the bed is. I thought the bed on the train was big, but this is one is twice the size. I feel a smile on my face and sprint at the bed. Before I run into it I jump and land belly first onto its cloud like softness. I roll on my back and look at the Blue ceiling. My eyes follow the ceiling to the blue walls. The smile disappears off my face when I realize that this will only last a short amount of time. I roll out of the bed and walk to the bathroom connecting the room.

I take a short shower and throw on new clothes. I didn't see who brought me the clothes but they gave me a white dress. I think about my grandmothers dress and feel guilty for leaving it on the train. I leave my hair messy and wet and walk to the dining room. Sitting down is Sundy, Bear, Marcus, and some girl standing in the corner wearing the same dress as me. I look her in the eyes but she turns away and walks to another room.

"Who was that?" I pointed after the girl.

"Never mind that." Sundy stands and grabs my hand and takes me and Bear to the elevator. "We have to meet your stylists."

"Who's our stylist?" Bear asks Sundy as the elevator doors close. She presses the L button for lobby.

"Actually." Sundy steps out of the door as it opens. "You two have separate stylists." Me and Bear extchange a look and we walk behind Sundy to a door across from the building entrance. She opens the door and the hallway is lit up like the sun. "I'll be waiting out here. You two will do fine." The door closes behind us and we walk down the bright hallway side by side. At the end of the hallway there are two doors. I look at Bear.

"How do we know which ones which?" He shrugs his shoulders.

"I guess we just pick." He walks in front of me and turns the handle to the left door. He turns around and gives me a smile. "Good luck." I don't think, I just go in the door. This stylist better make me look good. I think to myself. I'll need the sponsors if I'm not in the career pack.

I walk in the door and the room is a small steal room with a black sofa in the center. A tall man that is wearing a orange glittery jumpsuit walks in the same door that I walked in with a smile on his face. "Mailey dear." He remains standing. "Sit down dear." I sit down and he snaps his fingers. As he turns around two girls wheel in a cart with some clothes in it. "Lets get you dressed." He smiles at me then picks me up by the hand and rips off my dress.

My stylist escorts me down the hall I just came from and I see Bear chatting with his stylist and Sundy. They all look at me. "Oh you look wonderful." She walks over to me and embraces me. I don't like the Capitols style but they did a pretty good job at my outfit. Since our District is Masonry I am wearing a silver skirt that although looks like metal is not. It moves with my body movement, but is too short for my liking. It stops just inches after my crotch. My silver top is only covering breasts but there is beads of steal that drape over my stomach covering what I want covered. My hair is worn down and I have gold eye shadow that makes my brown eyes stand out. I like this outfit. Its simple yet it stands out. Bear wears something identical to mine but he wears no top which makes his muscles show. He wears no makeup, but he does wear a ring of chains on his brown head of hair. Its as if we are gladiator King and Queen.

"Well." Sundy claps her hands together. "Are you ready for the show?" I look at Bear and he holds my stare. "Yes we are."
